Apple MacBook Air 11-inch

It's true that the MacBook Air eschews some key features (no optical drive) and there are few expandability options. But the truth is, this astonishingly thin notebook has everything 90 percent of us need for day-to-day computing. Apple recently refreshed the line, reintroducing the backlit keyboard absent from last year's model, and adding a new high-bandwidth Thunderbolt port for connecting drives and displays. Still don't find it drool-worthy? The whole thing weighs just under three pounds.
